Animal Portraiture
In the summer of 2010 I had the wonderful
opportunity to intern at Old Dominion University in Norfolk, VA, where a
wonderful group of people taught me how to silkscreen. My affinity for
portraiture, and love of animals seemed to make a great subject in

went through to make my first screen prints.
Alphabet Animals
While staying at my friends house a few years
ago, I carved a linoleum block image of a horse for my sister-in-laws
birthday. The horse was a simple study to me, but it was regarded as
one of my better works and all my peers pushed me to do more. This
alphabet is the product of my weak will in succumbing to peer pressure.
It is also one of my favorite bodies of work.

Italy
In the fall of 2005, I began a study
abroad program between Cornish Collage of the Arts, in Seattle WA, and
Umbria Institute, in Perugie Italy. This was one of the most wonderful
experiences of my life to date. The people and food were amazing, but
most of all was the scenery. These age old buildings, half falling
apart, half completely immovable.
These works are a culmination of my explorations of the streets and alleyways of the small town I stayed in on this trip.
